I saw a Way, forward
and cloaked myself in the skin
of a Digital dimension.
I began living
cloud-soaring and ascending soft
then the headset came off.
Now curtains are
retreating, from the light streaming
into my shrinking eyeballs.
Ow! To whit, I prefer
to refer to it now as a Path.
Plans fail, but
Paths diverge.

Magsasampung taon na kitang mahal, mahal.
(I've been in love with you for almost ten years, love)
Ang tigas na siguro ng mga binti mo kakatakbo mo sa isipan ko.
(You're thigh muscles toughened bec you always run on my mind)
Pero mas masaya sana kung alam mo, mahal, na mahal kita.
(But I could be happier, love, if you just know that i love you.)
Pero di pa, di ko pa kayang sabihin sayo, baka siguro balang araw, kapag lahat ay huli na.
(But no, i still cant tell you, maybe someday, someday when its all too late.)

Observable words
turning in circles
perfectly working
affirmed in impermanence
Serpents within swirls
swerve in the verve
curvature burned irksome
turbidity skinned earnest
Journal pearls quirked
turpentine turbulence
since worries serve nervousness
the cure in spurts of churlishness

I can't find my wallet.
I can't find my passport.
It's a problem because
my driver's license expired.
Need the passport for ****
Need it to cash the paycheck.
At ***-Mart, because I
don't have a bank. US, Chase,
Wells Fargo. I owe from the past.
But if I don't get to the CDC,
or Nectar to get the ****
I won't function my best.
I'll be without mental rest.
At 800 a month, it's my only
and the most expensive hobby.

A sliver of air on the wind
Cold, but familiar
Then she kept going
Saying she wasn't good for me
Saying goodbye everyday
I convinced her to stay
And I stayed by the frosty air that was my
"Love"
My "Baby boo"
My Gabs
But today she left,
And now I'm colder than I was before...
They all leave... I guess she was no different

You are the
best thing
that has
ever happened
to my
********
And we
can only sleep
with our legs
entangled
in an
intricate braid.

I knew the moment you smiled,
That I'd do anything to never let that fade
I knew the moment when our lips did tango together
that my feelings could not be tamed
I knew the moment we laid next to each other
the night sky would not hold my attention the way it did before
because the fire in your eyes
put all those dead stars to shame
I knew the moment you traced the contours of my body
That no drug could compete with that
When you kissed me for the first time,
i felt as if all the pieces inside me fell into the right places
*I knew the moment i walked through this memory lane,
I'll never be the same,
your love, your patience, your smile, your pure soul
changed me
for good or bad, i can't yet tell
i guess it's both
'cause after all you made me an addict :/ '')*
what i don't know is
when did i start falling for you
was it the day i leaned on your shoulder and cried my heart out
and all those walls i'd made around to save me
came breaking down and i was saved?
was it the day i told you about my sick brother
or my mother?
was it during the phase of our late-night talks
and inseparable period?
was it the day our friends advised us to leave each another
and we heard them alright, but did not care??
well, I don't know when i fell for you?
or, when you no longer were a part of my life
but became my life
and the sun and moon in it
and it was no longer gravity holding me to this Earth but you
I would say i love you
but these three words have become just a pale description of my love for you

Well I don't know how it happened
You just forgot, I guess
The pain receded
I kept breathing
And now...
I wish I hadn't seen that
It hurts to see you function
I hate to watch you love
...
I really hate to watch you love.
I wish you hadn't kissed me
In the wind
Genuine surprise coursing through my veins
I thought those sort of kisses were myths, all
My heart might have stopped
I wish you hadn't let me in
Serenades and rusty blades
Dreams and phone calls
Roller coasters and secret beer
The similarities bring me down
Why can't my soul mate stay my friend?
I hate the way you make me love you.
Every word, I miss the drawl
I used to talk that way.
My twangy southern voice has left and so has my love of spontaneity
You've wrecked it all
All I have is
Anger for your smile
Exploration
You touched my bones
Leave me alone.
